when women take care of themselves and leave me in peace."

Spears' trial by media:

"I feel for her because she was so young when
she was made a superstar ... if she survives it'll be stupendous, she'll
give it a good shot ... if the American public are behind her she'll be
ok, but you never know."

Tori also performs Bouncing Off Clouds live
in the studio.
